We would encourage you not to base your choice on the lowest Ogmore Vale conveyancing fees. You really do get what you’re paying for when it comes to conveyancing solicitors. A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need.

I am helping my step-mother sell her flat in Ogmore Vale. Does the conveyancing solicitor arrange an energy performance certificate or it is for me to see to?
After the abolition of Home Packs, energy performance certificates remained a compulsory component of moving house. An EPC must be to hand in advance of the property being advertised. It is not a task that solicitors normally arrange. If you are using a Ogmore Vale conveyancing practitioner they may help arrange energy performance certificates given their contacts with long established Ogmore Vale providers
I am selling my flat. I had a double glazing fitted in December 2008, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My purchaser’s lender, Coventry BS are being a right pain. The Ogmore Vale solicitor who is on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel is recommending indemnity insurance as a solution but Coventry BS are insisting on a building regulation certificate. Why do Coventry BS have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?
It is probably the case that Coventry BS have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Coventry BS may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.
